Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Avoma

  • Conversation Intelligence, the capability most buyers actually want, is a 29 US dollar per seat add-on rather than part of the plan, so the real cost of a working sales configuration is at least 53 per user per month against a 19 headline.
  • Seat ceilings are baked into tiers, with Startup capped at 25 seats and Organization at 100, so growth forces a plan change for headcount reasons alone rather than feature reasons.
  • Conversation intelligence on the Organization tier is explicitly limited, meaning teams discover which parts are missing after they have committed to an annual contract.
  • Deal and forecast analytics are considerably shallower than dedicated revenue intelligence platforms, so an organisation that grows into serious pipeline inspection will replace the add-on rather than expand it.
  • Summary quality depends on the note template being maintained, and teams that never configure templates get generic recaps that nobody reads, which quietly turns the subscription into an expensive transcript archive.

Timely

  • Starter is capped at 20 projects and a maximum of 5 users, at $11 per user per month billed monthly or $9 billed yearly
  • Premium is capped at a maximum of 50 users, at $20 per user per month billed monthly or $16 billed yearly
  • Unlimited users requires the Unlimited plan at $28 per user per month billed monthly or $22 billed yearly
  • Capacity management and reporting, overtime and undertime tracking, Azure user management and 50+ currencies are all on the Unlimited plan only
  • Team management, budgets and costs, and accounting and project management integrations are excluded from Starter
  • The Enterprise plan is contact sales only with no published price
  • Tasks is sold as a paid add-on rather than being included
